MUMBAI: Indian equity benchmark indices ended lower on Wednesday for the third straight session, weighed down by rising geopolitical tensions that kept investors cautious.

“A sustained break below 25, 130 could reopen downside toward 24, 920–24, 900, ” a market expert said.
“At this stage, price action reflects consolidation after exhaustion, not a confirmed trend reversal, with the index posting its fourth consecutive weak close, ” the analyst mentioned.
